Few accessories have the power to transform an outfit quite like a belt. Indeed, many a burlap sack-ish dress of mine has benefitted significantly from being belted. The right belt can also mean having an outfit that works for you, instead of you working for it—like constantly having to hike up too-loose pants. And, if you’re searching for a kind and sustainable option that doesn’t sacrifice quality or aesthetics, this curated collection of vegan belts was made for you.

Most options in this post are vegan leather belts made from innovative materials like apple leather, cork, bamboo leather, and even cactus leather. But there also a few outdoorsy belts made from recycled polyester, in case you’re looking for more rugged functionality.

It so happens that all belts in this post are made by fully vegan brands, so if you find yourself browsing their sites and prefer to avoid animal materials, you can rest assured. Lastly, with a few exceptions where reviews were not available, the belts featured in this post all have reviews of at least 4.5/5 stars.
